    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, Kenya Charity Sweepstake has a long history. In the past, the line between private sector and Government was grey. It was almost blurred. However, it is a private company. I know that the Managing Director is called Maj. David Vauden. He has a Board of Directors. This information can be made available to the House. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, may I volunteer further information? We are in the process of starting a national lottery. The discussions and arrangements are at a very advanced stage. Of course, when that comes about, many operators will be asked to apply for licences. Once they get a licence to operate a national lottery, all those others, including the Kenya Charity Sweepstake, will cease to operate. The only other people who will operate lotteries are organisations that use 594 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES April 12, 2007 lotteries to promote their products. That is a \"once-only\" affair. A national lottery will considerably help good causes. So, we will just be falling in line with most countries in the world, which have a national lottery."
